Barely, but I'll Take it.

Today was barely successful, but you know what?  It was!  Going into today, I had very little wiggle room for my calorie goal.  I had planned on working a double so had my food pretty much pre-planned. 

But plans changed.

There was food at work.  Plus, because I was planning on a double, there was no room for any significant exercise.  With this, I exceeded my calorie goal for today (which in my mind is failure....I need to reframe "success" and "failure" and not go solely by the calorie goal).

I did eat some of my homemade banana bread (I had 2 more pieces than originally planned), but that is it.  I resisted going into the bingo bin for more chocolate so that is a huge success.  I skipped out at change of shift to avoid the delicious food being brought in.  And I didn't double which means I got to go for a hike after work.  That is awesome because it gave me some more calories to eat. 

I am ending the night with 29 calories to spare.  It seemed like extra hard work today, but I did it.  Barely, but I did it.
